Dear list members,

Those of you interested in Classical Tamil poetry may like to know that I have just now posted a new, the 10th, contribution on realia in Old Tamil Caṅkam poetry on my website (go to "Publications" and scroll down to "Realia ..."). It is titled “The Pakaṉṟai Flower and Fuller’s Earth”. Furthermore I have posted a new version of no. 1, "Murukaṉ in the Molucca beans" (originally June 2021, new version September 2023).

With kind regards. Herman
